Answer:

Short term: The fish (that sharks feed on) increase, the aquatic plants decrease

Long term: The fish (that sharks feed on) decrease, the aquatic plants increase

Explanation:

Short term: The fish increase because the sharks that used to feed on them decrease hence they get eaten less. The increased fish eat a lot of plants hence aquatic plants decrease.

Long term: The increased fish will then compete for the few aquatic plants present. Only the stronger fish survive hence most fish starve and die. Less fish means that the aquatic plants are being eaten less thus the aquatic plants increase.

Which statements are true about variations in the genetic code?

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

C) They may provide selective advantages.

D) Slight differences in the genetic code may have significant results.

Explanation:

The genetic code is universal, and present in most living beings . Generally, in most living organisms, the same codons are assigned to the same amino acids.

DNA sequences make up genes that may have multiple variants, called alleles. DNA deoxyribonucleic acid, is transcribed into mRNA and then translated into amino acids that form proteins.

Natural selection mainly acts on phenotypes, which are dependent on proteins and the organisms's environment. Phenotypes conferring advantageous traits are favored by the selection process- these help groups of organisms evolve over time.
